This pencil drawing by Victor Müller, housed in the Städel Museum, is a preparatory study for a larger work. The left side depicts a pair embracing, possibly a romantic couple. The right side shows a female nude figure surrounded by several shrouded figures, perhaps symbolizing death or the unknown. The faint outlines and sketchy style suggest a preliminary exploration of composition and figure placement, characteristic of preparatory drawings for more finished artworks.
